Former Minister of Lands and Natural Resources, Inusah Fuseini, has squarely blamed Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the 2024 flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), for the electoral disturbances that plagued several constituencies across the country, particularly Ablekuma North, following the December 7, 2024, general elections.
Speaking during a panel discussion on Channel One TV on Saturday, July 12, 2025, Fuseini argued that Dr.
Bawumia's premature concession of defeat shortly after polls closed sent the wrong signal to party agents and supporters, resulting in confusion and a breakdown of electoral processes in critical areas.
His remarks come in the aftermath of violent incidents during the Ablekuma North parliamentary rerun on Friday, July 11, 2025, where thugs physically assaulted former Minister for Fisheries and Aquaculture, Mavis Hawa Koomson, the NPP Deputy National Organiser, Chris Lloyd Nii Kwei Asamoah, and a journalist at a polling station.
